Update on Tangerine. Once downloaded and opened I was given a few days to try the program prior to purchase. My library has 5776 songs and upon launching Tangerine it began going through getting the beats per min. This was going to take awhile and I noticed that there were several that had "error" beside the song but it kept going until it was just over 50% done and it froze. I had to quit the program and when I launched again it ask if I wanted to send the crash log to the company, I clicked no for I wanted to finish the songs that were left so I could see if this was indeed going to work.
Once it opened I clicked on the icon to analyze the rest of the songs and it said there were no more to check and the list was VERY short, not near 2,500 to 2,800 that should have been the number I had based on the progress of the bar to the point of the freeze. A shame, and I wish Apple would just add this feature so we could have an honest number built into iTunes. Guess I won't be using this and still in need a something solid that will do the trick. Thanks again for the suggestion. John R.
